Taming the Beast Within Prologue
“Did you go with the hunters again, Lexi?” She heard their mother ask her half-sister Lexi the very moment she entered their small bungalow house.From the sink where she was washing the plates, she took a swift glance at what was happening in their living room from a small opening in the furniture were their books where placed. She saw how Lexi rolled her eyes before she looked at their mother and pasted her faked smile – covering her irritation towards their mother’s possible interrogation, well, more of a litany perhaps.Shea mentally heaved a deep sigh as she continued washing the plates instead. It wasn’t new to her anyway. Her half-sister was truly stubborn, and she always did what she wanted to do. She couldn’t blame her, though. She was a seventeen-year-old lady with a tough, strong, and independent personality.Maybe she was trying to find her mate, too. Unlike her, she couldn’t do what she was doing – lurking in the woods, being with a lot of male wolves, and socializing wit
Taming the Beast Within 1: Alpha
Chapter 1Alpha***POV: Shea Vestine“That witch! She never changed! I really hate her to the core!” Her best friend, Carrie, angrily cursed Lexi after telling her what happened yesterday.She let out a deep sigh as she threw the stone into the river. Her long dark chocolate hair was dancing in the cold wind. She gathered it on one side of her shoulder and tied it using her stretchable bracelet. Her fair white skin was glistening in the sun.They were in their usual spot on the riverbank. She was sitting on the huge rock while Carrie was eating the rice cakes that her mother had told her to bring. She was hoping to catch some fish in the river when Carrie appeared in front of her, asking her about what happened to her yesterday. She might be worried because she didn’t see her around.Carrie was her only best friend.Well, honestly, she was the only person who befriended her.She met her because their families were both servant omegas – the lowest rank in the pack. Working together as
Taming the Beast Within 2: Strange Emotions
Chapter 2Strange Emotions***POV: Shea VestineEveryone in the pack was trying their best to clean their garden as well as their own home – dressing up to their best, or they might be trying to impress the King instead.But no matter what they were doing now, Shea felt like she was terribly nervous about facing the King. It was two days before her birthday, and she didn’t want to die in the hands of a horrible and wicked King. She was hoping that it wasn’t the case, though.She heard from Carrie that the Hill Clan was being held prisoner in their own house, and they weren’t allowed to go out – not until this day. Lexi, too, was taken aback when she heard it and promptly locked herself in her room.It was a blessing in disguise for her anyway. She had a lot of things to do. She was just grateful – well, a bit – because the Alpha’s family were asked not to communicate to anyone, even to the servant omegas like her.With that, she was spared by Connor’s mockeries – even for that day. S
Taming the Beast Within 3: Weak
Chapter 3Weak***POV: Denvereaux Thorne“I must say that something exciting is about to happen for you here, my dear cousin.” King Levi boyishly smiled at him.Denver just wanted to let him leave the place, but he insisted on hosting a welcome party for him. All the servant omegas were cooking for the feast, and Tristan – the King’s beta, who had this burgundy hair – was organizing everything for it.“Just stop it or I will not accept this position anymore.” He replied, annoyed – causing King Levi to burst into laughter.Denver annoyingly moved his sight to somewhere else, but he suddenly felt like his breathing hitched when he laid his eyes on the fair woman who was wearing a floral white and purple dress. She was smiling at her friend while they were arranging the tables and chairs.He swallowed hard as he felt his inner wolf suddenly become restless.When the lady bit her pinkish lower lip, he just wanted to go near her and talk to her all day. But his imagination was broken when
Taming the Beast Within 4: Mate
Chapter 4Mate***POV: Shea Vestine“Huh?” Shea unconsciously asked – her hand was still in her chest.She was trying to calm her raging nerves, but her ears were so deaf to the loud booming sound because of the fast beating of her heart. Her hands were cold and sweaty – as her apprehension intensified.Shea couldn’t believe that their new Alpha was in front of her and talking to her too!She must be dreaming!Denver chuckled at her foolish reaction. She blushed profusely and slightly bowed her head while biting her lower lip.And that gave her a confirmation of reality – she wasn’t dreaming at all.Shea tried to calm herself. She didn’t want to suddenly shift into her wolf form and humiliate herself more.She let out an inaudible sigh.“The moon is glistening so brightly in the night sky, huh?” Alpha Denver calmly said.His voice was certainly just so gentle and comforting. It was the first time that someone had given her this kind of kindness aside from her parents and Carrie.Her
Taming the Beast Within 5: Offer
Chapter 5Offer***POV: Shea VestineShe had been having trouble sleeping that night because all that was running through her mind was Denver’s words.But what’s more, making her damn sleepless was his letter before she even went home.*** Flashback…Her mind was drifting away, and she had no idea how to deal with it. Little did she know that her chaotic state could be even more chaotic than it had already been because she had received a small note on slipping into her small clutch bag.She even looked around to see if anyone was there.But there’s no one except her.‘Be my mate.’ – D. T.That was all that was written on that note. T.?She suspected that someone was teasing her – but her instincts told her that it was Denvereaux Thorne who had left her the note.Her spine shivered at that thought, but at the same time, she also felt the anticipation lurking inside her.Shea was truly surprised that she instantly kept the note and swiftly went home.*** End of Flashback…She was trul
Taming the Beast Within 6: Whipped
Chapter 6Whipped***POV: Shea Vestine“What? But Alpha, she is the weakest among us!” Lexi tried to reason out with Denver, but he just sneered at her – causing her to stop.It seemed like everyone were dumbfounded at what Denver declared.Especially the darkened expression that he had right now on his face.“Stop creating any more reasons. And don’t ever try to hurt her again!” His voice thundered that everyone kept their mouth shut.Before she even reacted to any of it, Denver dragged her hand and pulled her towards God knows where.She was still in her drifting reverie when they suddenly took an abrupt stop. They were near the riverbank where they had their first encounter.“Are you okay?” Denver’s gentle voice had reached her ears.And in the middle of her chaotic thoughts, her che
Taming the Beast Within 7: Family
Chapter 7Family***POV: Shea VestineShe didn’t know whether it was a good thing that Denver had declared that he was her mate or not. A lot of their pack members were too cautious to go near here now.Shea let out a deep sigh as she went back to their house. She didn’t know whether her mother and Uncle Leandro were already home, but she needed to talk to them the moment they arrived.But she must have been out of luck that day because Lexi was at home.Apparently, she might have no face to show because of what happened to them earlier.“So, you have finally shown your true colors.” She disgustedly commented.She thought that she would finally stop telling her nasty things, but she guessed it all wrong.Shea heaved a deep sigh.“Lexi, can you please stop. I am exhausted with all of your banter – which I
